Well the writing my own version is a definite (and easy) option its this
brand name which would make my life slightly easier. TBH having seen how the
rest of the liquidation went I bet the liquidators don't even know that this
particular .co.uk even *exists* as all of the domain management was given to
another company (500+ domains) just becasue of the hassle of contacting
everyone. I reckon I'll be able to get it at least pointing to the right
place it's wether I can legally use the name. The company in question
stopped marketing and pushing this product some years ago, it's just that as
a small business it could be useful to me.

I could give the liquidator a call, I just don't want them to prick their
ears up and suddenly want a few grand for something they didn't even know
about....It's certainly not worth a few grand to me.
